NumberSix: 2016 Official Presidential Endorsement Thread

[NumberSix]

http://barbwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/ted-cruz.jpeg


After much thought, I'm endorsing Ted Cruz.


At the beginning of the campaign, Ted Cruz was my first pick... But, ever since the issue of his eligibility arose, I've backed off of him as a candidate. It's clear now that the republican candidate will either be Donald Trump or Ted Cruz. I'm at a point now that I'm willing to have him be the nominee and just let that issue play out.

Ted Cruz is a true principled conservative, the best candidate that the Republican Party has to offer and gives the Republican Party the best chance to win the general election. Most importantly, Ted Cruz will change the culture of the Republican Party from being an establishment/corporatist, big government, good old boys club and restore it to a principled Reagan-Conservative party.

NumberSix, why do you feel Reagan was principled?

His actual actions aren't even that consistent with modern conservatism, but again, he's likable so people are willing to overlook that.

Reagan signed 10 or so separate tax increases during his time as president (and did the same as the governor of California).

Reagan granted "amnesty" to 3 million or so illegal immigrants in the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986.

Reagan demanded that Israel freeze settlements of occupied territory.

Reagan supported gun control, specifically the "Brady Bill" (which he had a personal stake in, obviously).

He also "cut and ran" from Lebanon after the US Marine barracks were blown up by a suicide bomber instead of retaliating and/or committing more troops.

Then he directly negotiated with the US' sworn enemy, the USSR, for nuclear arms reductions and actually got somewhat close to eliminating nuclear arms all together at the Reykjav

Cruz may be "establishment" in the sense that he has been inside of republican politics for more than a decade, but ideologically he is a different breed than the establishment. Cruz is an actual conservative. Believe it or not, the republican establishment isn't fond of conservatives and conservatism.

Get your retarded political ideologies out of here. You'll find that every time someone is a true conservative or true libertarian or true liberal or whatever they force themselves into illogical decisions all the ****ing time based on misguided ideology.

Time for people to stop being partisan hacks.

I'm rolling with Bernie Sanders.

[ROCSteady]

I recently completed a comprehensive questionnaire on isidewith.com re: political stances to see which candidate best fits my vision for a greater America.


Due to the delicate nature of political affiliations among white people, I choose not to disclose the results until I am PM'd AT LEAST 4 nudes. They can be your own or ones of girlfriends past but please NO TRANSGENDER ppl.

I am simply not ready for that kinda action as I am #TeamGenderBinary #TeamChromosomesAreREAL #TeamGendersAreSolidNotFluid
